1. Prevent heat-related deaths Law enforcement and military dogs (K9s) face unavoidable, life-threatening situations every day. While on the job, many experience heat-related incidents such as heat stroke, often leading to death. To prevent unnecessary K9 deaths, law enforcement units from Massachusetts, Arizona and Texas have invested in a wireless monitoring system that communicates the K9's internal body temperature to their human officer partners in real-time. Data Sciences International has partnered with Blueforce Development Corp. to introduce a system designed to ensure occupational health and safety for law enforcement and military K9s while working in dangerous environmental conditions.
